In the heart of the hip East Village, just off bustling St. Mark’s Place, lives the refined toy collector’s dream: Toy Tokyo. The store imports much of its unique, highly collectible inventory—from exclusive hand-painted figurines to wind-up toys—directly from Hong Kong and Japan. Expect to find the latest Transformers, Star Wars and Urban Vinyl toys, amongst many other brands.
